Much like the first title in this series, Spellforce II combines the management and resources of the RTS genre with the character development, plotline, and questing of RPGs. In the first title, too much time had to be spent organizing and tweaking your resources and base on each map to be enjoyable, even for most RTS fans. Phenomic has revised this, much like most of the original, to be more streamlined, more efficient, and more fun.
